Sorry... I don't use any frozen stuffs except for green peas... SO, I never venture out into the frozen section...

Someone help me out with the recipe for Vegetable Biryani. I know the mainstream recipe, but I hear there are different ways of enhancing the taste! Anyone got any? :)

Adding some coconut milk and/or cashewnut paste is a taste enhancer. My mom does it when we go home, to impress the son-in-law i guess. :)

Does any one know the Tamil word for Palm sugar please?

i think its " Panagal kandu " or " Panam karkandu "
